We weren't sure about this and ended up going on our last day. Really glad we went. The tour guide was very entertaining. Definitely worth a look.

Well worth spending a couple of hours at the Perth mint. you get a guided tour a demonstration of gold pouring and get to see the biggest gold coin ever.

One of the smaller historical mints that is still actively producing commemorative coins. The staff are friendly, helpful and full of knowledge. You can ask them almost anything and they will be happy to try to help.
The site offers daily tours around the mint (approx. Every hour) and the price is reasonable. The tour explains not only the history of the site but also covers a brief history of the gold rush in Western Australia along with some replica and real gold nuggets.
The Perth Mint claims to be home to the worlds largest gold coin ever produced by weight (1 tonne). Site tours include an informative demonstration on how the mint used to melt down gold into liquid form and produce the gold bullion bars we know today.
I highly recommend signing up to the tour as there are plenty of areas you will be able to access as part of the tour.

Fun and interesting experience. Good for young and old. You aren't able to enter without being part of a group, which leave on the half hour i.e. 10.30am, 11.30am. Involves a presentation and good pouring example. Easy to spend 30-60 minutes here.

Overall great experience. Not as thrilling as say Adventure World, but it is worth a visit. If you are an adrenaline seemed then this isn't the place for you, but if you are looking for a family friendly place then this is perfect. It is also a great place to go before a picnic because Kings Park is right next to it.

I went to the Perth mint to exchange a coin that my sister had purchased for my daughter that was the wrong Chinese zodiac animal. There is much more jewellery and coins etc available to purchase than I thought there would be.
They also run tours every hour from 9:30 where you can watch gold being poured and coins being minted.
